CAPTION
Requesting consideration and authorization for Hidalgo County to execute a Memorandum of Understanding between Hidalgo County and City of McAllen and establishing ownership of the core radio controller purchased under the Assistance to Firefighters Grant.
BACKGROUND
7/3/2012 – Letter of Commitment to the City of McAllen
10/23/2012 - AI-27859- Equipment Lease-Purchase Agreement with Motorola Solutions Inc.
11/12/13 – AI-41701- Acceptance of Interlocal with City of McAllen
The City of McAllen applied for the Assistance to Firefighters Grant (AFG) in 2012. The AFG Program provides financial assistance to fire departments to enhance their ability to protect the public and fire service personnel from fire and related hazards. As part of the grant, the City of McAllen applied for a Motorola M2/M2 Core on behalf of the Hidalgo County Fire Marshal's Office.
In late October of 2012, Hidalgo County entered into the Motorola purchase/lease of radios and the M2/M3 Core. Hidalgo County was notified by the City of McAllen in May 2013 that the AFG was approved. The approval of the grant would allow for Hidalgo County to pay off the M2/M3 Core with a onetime payment of $1,135,374.00 with AFG funds with a 20% local match of $227,074.80. By amending the Motorola Contract, it would allow for the purchase of the M2/M3 Core equipment and release of the equipment from Motorola.
